It's going to be an interesting year. Instead of getting a classroom ready and picking out a back-to-school outfit, we'll be moving boxes and setting up house. We've finally made an official decision to move to the Asheville area. While we don't have teaching jobs yet, we're going to be subbing full-time in Henderson County, and will also be offering our services as sub bus drivers for the county. It's going to take some creative budgeting, but I think we can do it. Hopefully we'll have a divine hand in helping us settle and find jobs within the year.
We went to Susan's house last weekend to begin our job-search. We thought it would serve us better to actually be IN Asheville to look around for available jobs and housing. We were offered positions as brass instructors at a local music school. While at the moment there is no pay, we'll be actively recruiting, and will hopefully pick up a few students to supplement whatever we make subbing. I've included the pic Susan took of us before we went to see the owner & the guitar teacher. We don't often get pics of just the 2 of us, so it was nice.
We'll be going back to Asheville/Fletcher next week to visit some houses properly, not just driving almost aimlessly as we did last week. Mom's going with us this time, since she'll have a stake in where we live. We're very lucky to have her joining us! Absolutely no way she'll live that far from her grandbaby!
